My husbands had several days of meetings in Bangkok and our whole family went along. This apartment is in a very convenient location. There are a lot of places close by that allows you not to have to travel far. We walked several times to Terminal 21, a large mall about 10-15 mins away. There is a lot of traffic in this area so plan that into your schedule if using taxis. There are several other transportation options close by as well. The pool and the gym on the 9th floor are great. I also visited the hair salon in the lobby and they did a great job! The only thing I would recommend is that you get the exact address from the host before arriving. The guy that was arranged to pick us up at the airport was not clear which place we were staying. After we realized we had driven around the block twice we called the host to help us out. Thankfully he was always quick to respond to any texts and the housekeeper was waiting for us and showed us around the apartment, very helpful!
